How man first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that man, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to stand for those sounds, and which could be written down, Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then lies in their association with the things they bring up before our minds. Words became filled with meanings for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal (吸引) powerfully to our minds and emotions. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them exactly, or they will make our speech silly and impolite.

B) a matter that can not be or has not been explained or understood
C) a question that was difficult to answer
D) a problem already solved
42. One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions was that they could .
A) agree with certain signs B) write them down
C) make themselves understand each other D) combine them
43. What is true about the words?
A) They are used to express feeling only. B) They can not be written down.
C) They are spoken or written sounds. D) They are soundless signs.
44. A great writer is one who .
A) has great thoughts
B) is good at deeply impressing us with the power of correct words
C) is careful in choosing correct words
D) both A and B
45. It is necessary to pick up the words when we say or write in order .
A) to show that we are polite B) to show that we are good at using them
